Throw your calendar back to 2008
Two important dates that demonstrate greatness
One was historic, euphoric, for Obama backers
When we elected the first pres who wasn’t a cracker

But here in KC that was not the top news
November’s Obama drama couldn’t fill June’s shoes
6/25/08 was fate’s date selection
A new king was born in the Heartland section

Leo Lafferty’s arrived, I’m warning all the ladies
If he’s anything like daddy he’s checkin’ out the babies
Gettin’ jiggly and wiggly in the Leo matrix, which is
Round in the belly and shiny at the apex

If you want to be his queen, patience is prime
Because the lion is inclined to age like fine wine
When it’s time, it’s time, so don’t get hyper
Now mommy’s the queen, because she changes his diaper

Enjoyed the shots of Leo painting the town
Matching Swedish shirts, pair of pants on his crown
Wearing daddy’s glasses, though just a little big
Breaking it down with mommy, trying to dance his first jig

It’s not surprising to us, that little Leo is chill
His parents locking it down like it’s no big deal
Happy child in the pride, love abounds for real
Leo Lafferty, son, you got a good deal
